a ko4-2x from a 225 will give you simular in power and more torque. But the more important thing is you get stock like reliabilaty as opposed to a cut up garret turbo. I would either go ko4-2x or go with a true garrett turbo. It really depends on your goals. Personally a t3s60 would be a far better buy than either turbo above. You can make 280whp on 93 and w/ 100 or 93 and water/meth you can make 300+whp and the cost is relativly cheap and garrett reliability.

a ko4 you should be able to find on in the classifieds or from pro-imports.com. For a t3s60 if you go to pagparts.com arnold can help you out.

If you get either one and want the most performance out of them, your gonna need a FMIC and other things.
You are also going to have to get software for each. and I dont know how easy it is to get software for a t3s60, but you caould probably get software for the k04-2x from GIAC, not sure.
I also want a new turbo but cant decide between the k04 and eliminator.
O you can get the eliminator and its software at atpturbo.com
but there are always consequences when you put more power in you engine

A revo stage 3 file w/ a 28r file or any 28r file will work well aslong as you have the injectors and maf it is written for.
I also want a new turbo but cant decide between the k04 and eliminator. Full kits have more power and are more reliable than a "eliminator" that only eliminated themselves
O you can get the eliminator and its software at atpturbo.com DO NOT BUY MIKA TUNING!!!

would an APR chip and some RC 310cc injectors give me a good amount of horsepower with the K04-15 also if I buy the K04-2x will it fit in the stock location and run off the stock chip.

its not a direct swap, just like its not a direct swap on the transverse engines also. Some work will be involved. But that is the differnce between 20-30hp and 30-40ftlbs of torque, so it has its trade-offs like most turbos.
